Detailed explanation-1: -A problem-centred curriculum has its philosophical roots in constructivism, whereby knowledge is built through the students’ active participation in the learning process. A problem-centred curriculum places learning in the context of real-world problems that make students want to solve them (Hmelo-Silver, 2004).
Detailed explanation-2: -Problem-based learning (PBL) is a student-centered approach in which students learn about a subject by working in groups to solve an open-ended problem. This problem is what drives the motivation and the learning.
Detailed explanation-3: -Problem-based learning uses problem solving but is much more than just problem solving. Problem-based learning is a curriculum-wide approach, it is a problem-first approach, it is integrative across disciplines, and it is metacognitive in its form of evaluation.
Detailed explanation-4: -Promote self-learning: As a student-centered approach, problem-based learning pushes kids to take initiative and responsibility for their own learning. As they’re pushed to use research and creativity, they develop skills that will benefit them into adulthood.
